If you’re still not sure, try out one of our sample free verb worksheets above!
Key Stage 1 verb worksheets start with the basics before working up to more difficult concepts and examples. Year 1 verb worksheets explore adding -ing and -ed to verbs and being able to identify verbs in sentences.
Year 2 verb worksheets should teach your child how to use irregular verbs and in the past tense, and continue working on being able to identify verbs in sentences. Some simple verbs are introduced at a slightly deeper level, including ‘am, ‘is’ and ‘are’. Grouping verbs by word meaning is another topic that gets introduced at this level.
Key Stage 2 verb worksheets progress your child’s understanding, including an introduction to suffixes, prefixes and an understanding of the different types of verbs and their usages. Year 4 verb worksheets help your child gain an awareness of verbs used in different tenses, and how to use them to enhance pieces of descriptive writing.
Lots of work happens throughout our year 5 verb worksheets! Amongst others, your child will be introduced to dis-, mis-, over- and de- verb prefixes, helping your child to elevate their usage of verbs. They should also start to revise verb endings, and start to understand modal verbs. Year 6 verb worksheets prioritise understanding subject-verb agreement and continue using verbs in different contexts. By the time your child reaches year 9 verb worksheets, they will mainly focus on revising the active and passive forms of verbs, as well as their function in different situations.
